Zhou Yu's words are just a question. Although Sun Jian is a person with serious habits of bandits, Sun Jian is definitely not a reckless person who ignores nothing. The reason why Sun Jian has not yet started a massacre is that Sun Jian is concerned about this.
.
Sun Jian once again asked Zhou Yu sincerely: "In accordance with Gongjin's opinion, what should we do now?"
Zhou Yu then analyzed to Sun Jian: "Lord, just as you said just now, we have been unfavorable on the battlefield recently. It is not that our soldiers are not as brave as others, but that our local officials are not as good as others in the logistics supply to our army.
, We are not as support as others among the local people. But if you want to let them work hard for us by killing one to warn us, it will only backfire. Not only will they not continue to work sincerely for us, but they may also make them
I have a cruel impression of the lord and then escape from being an official here to govern the people. You should know that which of our local officials are selected from the local clans. The local people and the local wealthy clans do not support us.
How could those local officials in our hometown work hard for us? Even if you kill a group of people to serve as a warning, the followers will still be like this. In this turbulent era, we do not have enough strength to protect ourselves.
At that time, in their minds, we were just a passerby. Only the family was their foundation! But why did we have no such problems when we wiped out Yan Baihu, and when we fought against Liu Yao,
What about these problems?”
After Zhou Yu asked the question, he said without waiting for Sun Jian to answer, saying, "After all, it is because Yan Baihu is a pirate, and his existence seriously threatens the local wealthy clans in Jiangdong and the lives of the people in Jiangdong. Therefore,
When you wiped out Yan Baihu, you were eliminating the harm for the people. You had great righteousness and solved the threats from the local wealthy clans in Jiangdong and the local people in Jiangdong. Therefore, the wealthy families and people in Jiangdong certainly supported you. At that time,
Of course, I will need food and soldiers."
Speaking of this, Zhou Yu changed his mind and continued: "But, after you wiped out Yan Baihu, the wealthy clans and people in Jiangdong wanted to take this opportunity to live a peaceful life, but you continued to expand for the great cause of unification.
The strength invaded Liu Yao. Liu Yao was a relative of the Han Dynasty and had been in Yangzhou for many years. Although he had not much virtue, he had not much bad politics. Moreover, Liu Yao was a relatively weak person and did not have much ambitions.
, never took the initiative to expand. The people are short-sighted and greedy for comfort, so in the minds of the people of Jiangdong, you naturally became a traitor, Yan Baihu became the second. The people will naturally no longer support you. And Jiangdong
Although the wealthy family understands that this is the only inevitable path in troubled times, you neither communicate well with them nor promise them enough benefits. Instead, you keep asking them for food and grass and children. And Liu
Yao was also a legitimate Han clan. Those wealthy clans who were used to measuring people by their background would of course make their choices. The choices between local people and wealthy clans were of course reflected in the efficiency of our local officials' affairs.
This is the foundation of our recent series of unsuccessful situations.”
Sun Jian suddenly realized and cursed angrily: "All these guys who are cumbling inside and outside should be killed!" However, Sun Jian just cursed casually. After the scolding, Sun Jian still asked Zhou Yu for advice: "Gongjin
,If that's the case, what can we do?"
After hearing Sun Jian's scolding, Zhou Yu asked again, and Zhou Yu smiled in his heart: The lord really understands this time.
Zhou Yu said to Sun Jian: "Lord, since you have understood the entanglement of things, the problem is much simpler. People, we can ignore them for now, the people are blindly following. As long as local celebrities post to us,
Support, we are giving local people some benefits, and those people will naturally be grateful to us. Therefore, as long as we open the links with local wealthy families and obtain their sincere support, our problem will be solved."
Sun Jian asked happily: "Gongjin, how can we get the joints with the local wealthy families? Otherwise, I personally visit them with a generous gift and a lot of money. What do you think?"
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "Lord. There is no need to do this. Even if you visit them in person, it will only scare them. You only need to ask two wise men to do this for you, and that's enough.
Now.”
"Oh? Which two sages have such great skills?" Sun Jian asked with great interest.
You should know that Zhou Yu's talent is definitely the first one under Sun Jian. You need to be literary and martial. You need to be both civil and military, and you are a master of great talent. This time, Zhou Yu said that the wise man came.
So where can these two people get at the same level?
Zhou Yu smiled slightly and said gracefully: "My lord wants to help the big things, can you tell me that there are two Zhangs in Jiangdong?"
Sun Jian asked in confusion: "What are the two?"
Dizzy! A big bead of sweat flowed down Zhou Yu's temples. Zhou Yu thought secretly: The lord really only knows how to care about the military, but not visit Gao Xian.
Zhou Yu could figure it out, so he stopped going around with Sun Jian and said to Sun Jian very simply: "Lord, a famous scholar and wise man in Jiangdong, is headed by two. One is Zhang Zhao, Pengcheng, and his courtesy name is Zibu; the other is Zhang Hong, Guangling.
, the name is Zigang. Both of these two people have the talent of conquering heaven and earth, and live here in seclusion because they avoid chaos. If the lord can hire these two people, the famous scholars in Jiangdong will change their views on you. And in the future, these two people will be for you.
To win over the wealthy clans in Jiangdong, the wealthy clans in Jiangdong will also sincerely support us. At that time, our problems will be solved easily, so why should we worry about not being able to fight against Liu Yao and Liu Bei?"
When Sun Jian heard this, he was overjoyed and even asked someone to bring gifts to him.
Unfortunately, Sun Jian overestimated his reputation. Both Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong refused to give in.
After Sun Jian was furious, he personally prepared a generous gift and visited his home again. Unfortunately, Sun Jian was one step late. Zhang Zhao and Sun Jian looked for him, and Sun Jian expressed his ambitions and gave him a big shot that Zhang Zhao highly praised.
.It felt comfortable to take Zhang Zhao. Zhang Zhao was very happy, and Sun Jian had to hire him hard, so Zhang Zhao got it for Sun Jian. He was appointed as the chief minister and also the general of the army. But he waited for Sun Jian to go again
When Zhang Hong hired him, the building was empty.
Just when Sun Jian hired Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong was also recommended to Liu Bei by Yu Ji. Although Liu Bei wanted to preserve his strength and was no longer attacking Sun Jian, the more talented people would be better. That would be the benefits of the royal family after the unification of the world in the future.
Liu Bei didn't send anyone to hire him at all, so Liu Bei ran to invite Zhang Hong himself. Liu Bei's level was much higher than Sun Jian's. At the beginning, even Cao Cao was fooled by Liu Bei.
. Moreover, Liu Bei's current status as an emperor uncle is higher than Sun Jian's background. Moreover, Liu Bei personally visited Zhang Hong, and his importance to Zhang Hong was much stronger than Sun Jian's only sending individuals to summon him. Therefore,
Zhang Hong naturally followed Liu Bei naturally and was hired as a staff officer by Liu Bei and followed the army to listen to him.
However, no matter what, Sun Jian finally got one of the two Zhangs in Jiangdong. Moreover, Sun Jian had Zhang Zhao dealing with political affairs for him and adopted a kind strategy to appease the local wealthy families. In addition, Liu Bei and Liu Yao were only waiting at this time
After Liu Ming contacted all the royal relatives to pacify the world together, Sun Jian's strength gradually recovered, and the unstable factors in Sun Jian's territory were gradually decreasing.
However, Yu Ji's Holy Fire Cult in Sun Jian's territory is still growing and growing. Although Sun Jian also felt threatened by this "Holy Fire Cult", the foundation of the "Holy Fire Cult" has been established. He has a deep prestige among the people of Jiangdong.
Sun Jian, who had just become more stable, really didn't dare to use Yu Jide's "Holy Fire Sect".
At this time, Liu Bei, who had just been beautiful for a few days, had taken over another wise man, encountered another crisis. After Liu Ming's envoy left, Cao Cao's envoy came again.
With the envoy of the imperial court's order, he arrogantly asked Liu Bei and Liu Yao to accept the order.
Liu Bei and Liu Yao were both concerned about their identity as relatives in the Han Dynasty, and of course they all respectfully welcomed the order. But when the decree was read out, Liu Bei and Liu Yao were both stunned. The court would actually appoint Liu Bei as Yangzhou
Mu. Then Liu Bei is even more famous than Liu Yao, the original Yangzhou governor. Although the nominal governor and the governor of the state are at the same level, the governor of the state only supervises the military and political affairs of a state, and the governor of the state
But he is in charge of the military and political affairs of a state. In this way, the superiors and inferiors will be divided into their own.
Liu Yao was really stunned. Liu Yao couldn't understand what the court was doing. How could he have a horse and his head? Now all the states and counties have almost the final say. He has ruled in Yangzhou for many years.
.Then Liu Bei was just here to join him. He took him in for his relatives only in the year. How could the court allow Liu Bei to be such a state governor? Could it be that because Liu Bei met the emperor, the two were more in love?
The emperor gave my territory to Liu Bei? This is too unfair. He is also a member of the Han Dynasty.
At this time, Liu Bei was still feeling happy and angry on the surface, but Liu Bei was ecstatic. Although Liu Bei had already wanted to make peace with Liu Ming and pacify the world together, and then give him a message.
I seek a good fiefdom. However, if I become the governor of Yangzhou and Yangzhou belongs to me, will my status in the royal alliance be higher in the future? Isn’t it that the land and official positions I enfeoffed in the future?
Is it even bigger?
But just when Liu Bei was ecstatic and wanted to accept the order and thank him, Liu Bei suddenly saw Chen Gong, who was accompanying him to receive the order, shook his head and winked at him, which meant that he would not accept the order.
Liu Bei was very surprised that it was a good thing to be promoted by himself. After he was promoted, wouldn’t Chen Gong and others also benefit from it? How could Chen Gong not accept the order like himself?
Thinking of this, Liu Bei suddenly realized that this was definitely a conspiracy. Liu Bei was not a fool. The reason why Liu Bei didn't expect it just now was just a mystery to Liu Bei's authorities. Now when Chen Gong reminded him, Liu Bei immediately understood. Such a beautiful thing was absolutely
It cannot be the emperor's original intention.
According to the imperial edict, the emperor was not thinking about himself and his uncle. Therefore, after the emperor knew that he had come to Yangzhou, he appointed himself as the governor of Yangzhou and gave himself a place to settle down.
But others don’t know, but did Liu Bei know? How could the emperor’s will be passed on randomly without Cao Cao’s consent? Otherwise, the emperor’s “robbery” would not have been so difficult to spread.
After the incident of "the edict of clothes and belts", it was even more impossible for the emperor's will to leave the palace casually.
If it wasn't for the emperor's will, it would be Cao Cao's will. With those methods he had to do with Cao Cao, if Cao Cao didn't look for an opportunity to cut him off, it would be Cao Cao's generous. Unless Cao Cao was crazy, how could Cao Cao be able to do so?
A kind-hearted promotion to yourself?
Since Cao Cao could not be crazy, it must be Cao Cao who used this trick to harm himself.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei knew that Cao Cao was planning to use promotion to provoke Liu Yao to kill him.
Liu Bei sneered in his heart: Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, you underestimate me Liu Bei too much. With such a small method, how could I harm me Liu Xuande? If you had used this method when I first came here
, I, Liu Bei, can't bear it, and you may be forced out of Yangzhou and go to other places to develop. But now, based on Liu Yao's trust in me, your method can only make me legitimately as the Mu Zhi of Yangzhou.
Official position.
Liu Bei sorted out his thoughts in an instant. Liu Bei's face, which was not as happy and angry, showed a look of fear and fear, and said to Cao Cao's envoy: "Thank you for your kindness, but I will never dare to accept it.
Please also ask the angel to tell the Lord that he has many good words for me."
The envoy came by Cao Cao's strict order. How could Liu Bei easily refuse? The envoy pretended to be angry and said, "Bold Liu Bei, do you dare to resist the order and refuse to obey?"
Liu Bei said in fear and fear: "Please give the Angel to understand clearly. It is not because of a low-level position and dare not to resist the order, but because of this Yangzhou, the territory of his brother Liu Zhengli, is under the jurisdiction of his brother Liu Zhengli. He is low-level and talented. He is lucky to be in charge of his brother, so how dare he surpass him.
My brother, I secretly took over the position of the governor of Yangzhou. I also asked the angel to reply to the sage truthfully, and the sage will definitely forgive the humble ones."
When Liu Yao heard this, he felt relieved. Liu Bei was really good. He deserved to treat Liu Bei as a brother. Moreover, Liu Yao also thought that now, his little governor of Yangzhou, was only temporary, waiting for Liu.
After the Ming Dynasty commanded the royal family and clans pacified the world, all the royal family members would recommend Liu Ming as the emperor, so that the young emperor would abdicate. At that time, those who recommended meritorious clans could have some princes.
Even if you can be granted a country, why should you miss the small official position of Yangzhou Mu? It hurts your kindness with Liu Bei.
